I have been using a pretty simple method to add 12% to several cells and it is giving me what the percentage is not adding the 12% to the existing amounts in each cell. the method I am using is:
-12% in unused cell
-Highlight all cells that I need to add 12% too
-Paste Special
-Values
-Multiply
-OK
If someone could help me I would be grateful.

I am trying for an Excel formula that will perform the following: I have a series of rows that hold percentages (e.g. total % of business by account), and a sum row which, of course, equals 100%. I am trying to make this dynamic. So, for example, I add 5% to one of the cells where there was 0%, and the distribution changes in the other cells in the range to still equal 100%. Like, slicing the pie differently and always getting to 100%. Thanks for any assistance!
My experience level with Excel is better than most, but limited. To frame it for the pros, I can peform lookups, ifs, countifs, that level of stuff. So, I started looking online and stumbled into a few things I found with MMULT, SEQUENCE, OFFSET, COUNTIF... they're not doing what I'm asking though. It's possilbel I don't know the name or phrase for what it is I am looking to do for my staff, and that is dead-ending me.
I have a simple formula in an excel sheet with 3000 rows, is there is a way to to return only a certain percentage of the top matching cells only. I only want the top 9% (270 rows) that match my criteria to be shown and other rows to be hidden
Here is my formula:
= IF(AND(H2=1,O2>=58)," A",IF(AND(H2=2,O2>=58)," B",IF(AND(H2=5,O2>=55)," C")))
I did it with pivot table but want to do it in the same sheet within the same formula adding to it to get what I need.
Thanks
Screenshot/here refer:
=LET(fil,FILTER($C$4:$C$3000,--($C$4:$C$3000>=500)),FILTER(fil,--(fil>=PERCENTILE(fil,E3))))
Pre-requisite: Office 360 compatible version of Excel
Notes: cell E3 (screenshot) = 8% (custom format type, including apostrophes: "top "0%" of filtered"; likewise, cell I3 type: "top "0%)
Advantages:
Auditability
Understandability
Preserves original ordering
Moderate calc. speed
Quick implementation
No interim calcs
Disadvantages:
Requires Office 360

Let function here - not essential but quite useful/convenient (alternative, longer version to above becomes cumbersome/unwieldy to work with - likely to be relatively more error-prone than more succinct/parsimonious equivalent hence provided)

I'm copying stats for work from one spreadsheet to another, but the percentages show in thousands, where the decimal point seems to move (e.g. what should be 32% shows as 3235%).
One the sheet I'm copying from, it shows 32%, but the problem occurs on the sheet I'm pasting to.
How or why does this happen?
How can I fix it?
Formatting the cells, is the only thing I've tried, as I'm not sure what else to do.
(no programming code available as it's a copy/paste routine)
My expected result: it should paste as 32%
The actual result: it pastes as 3235%
I think you should check if you are copying percentage value or just value without percents. If you copy 32.35 instead of 32.35%, the result shown in another sheet with percentage format will be 3235%, because 32.35=3235%.
I may be format issue as Ketzul mentioned above, to again convert into percentage format copy a cell contain value 100 and paste as divide. you can get the same value as the previous sheet. if you need exact answer, please share the file
I have had this occur when using the % button in excel.
I have now developed the habit of expressing any number that I use in calculations as a value between 0 and 1 and working from there...
So for your 32.35% I would use 0.3235
I have an excel file that uses formulas to calculate the percent of incentive generated. I have been asked to set up cell (G14) to never exceed 7% no matter what the values of cells C6,D6 and E11 are changed to. This is weird for me because the percentage should either go up or down depending on those values.
Can anyone help me figure out what can be done to lock this cell from exceeding 7%? here´s a link to the file http://1drv.ms/1El030y
Thanks
You just need to set a maximum value on it:
=min(0.07,F14+$F$11)
Use an IF() statement?
=IF(F14+$F$11>0.07,0.07,F14+$F$11)
I have a row containing cells with different formatting
they look the following
85
32%
45
23%
11
5%
the result i need to achieve is to SUM only the number formatted cells (not the percentage ones) without any additional rows. No clue how to do it.
Thanks so much.
Asuumuing your data is in A1:A6
=SUMIF(A1:A6,">"&1)
Unfortunately this will only work if all numbers in range are positive, I've just tried this with a larger dataset and is excluded negative values - wish I could provide a better solution but I don't know one.
